Watch making, even in its non-luxury form is such an art and it becomes difficult for the watch makers to carry through every process of producing a fine watch by the same company. Louis Vuitton has made the whole process of watch making one of their own with their latest masterpiece.

The Tambour Mystérieuse, as the name suggests, is a mysterious piece that elevates the materialisation of time. The Tambour Mystérieuse has a display piece emblazoned with the brand name which is elevated by placing it on sapphire crystal disks. Not only does this create the illusion that the piece is floating inside the bezel but it also gives the watch the signature mysterious title. The Tambour Mystérieuse is available as a manual or automatic and come with a host of customising options. You can choose what stones go on the watch and even the metal which makes up the casing.

The Tambour Mystérieuse comes in its own Louis Vuitton trunk and will cost you $265,000. Each watch of the model takes a whole year to be finished which will probably give you an idea why this costs so much.
